yes they do have UV. I'm not sure how old the bulb is though and I fear that maybe its not giving off enough so I will most likely go buy a new one. What would you recommend for a distant between the bulb and ground is about 9-14 inches? The male might be able to take a pinkie but the female is definitly to small. I've tried meal worms and the female will eat some but the male won't. Aside from crickets, what other insects would you recommend? Lastly, how often do you dust your feeders with calcium/vitamins? Right now I'm dusting once a week with Rep-Cal calcium with 0% D3(because of the UV rays right?) and Rep-Cal herptivite advanced formula. Does this seem like good care? Aside from anoles they're the only lizard I've had and I want to give them the best care I can. Thanks!
